Dialogue　對話　MP3 03-10

Steven and Bill will graduate from their college next week. Today, both of them attend the commencement.

Steven:Hi, Bill. Are you going to the commencement?

Bill:Yes. Do you want to go with me?

Steven:OK. (Several minutes later.) Let's go into the school auditorium.

Bill:Now, take this seat. Do you see those piles of red diplomas on the desks on the stage?

Steven:Yes. I find my heart is now rising and falling like waves, all sorts of feelings welling up in my heart.

Bill:That's true. Four years' trails and hardships, joys and sorrows of life are gushing out to my mind all together. I can hardly tell whether I am joyful or gloomy at the moment when I am about to leave the campus and to start a new stage of life.

Steven:How time flies. Look, the president of the college has come onto the stage.

Bill:He's going to make the opening speech.

比爾：坐在這兒，你看到主席臺桌子上那一疊疊鮮紅的畢業證書了嗎？
